New blog post on @Hashnode 🚨
Do you often reach for flex: 1 in your CSS Flexbox layouts? In my latest post, I break down each part of this shorthand so that you can confidently build responsive layouts that work the way you intend 🤓

Just signed up to @mattpocockuk's 2 week Claude Code cohort and I'm so excited to dive in 🤓
I'm using Claude code every day as part of my work and this came at the perfect time. Looking forward to starting on Monday 💗
We're encapsulating all our knowledge of @reactjs & @nextjs frontend optimization into a set of reusable skills for agents. This is a 10 years of experience from the likes of @shuding, distilled for the benefit of every Ralph
Ain't that the truth
(from @ProfCalNewport's newsletter today "Forget Chatbots. You need a notebook.")
ALT A screenshot from Cal Newport's newsletter: "The problem facing knowledge work in our current moment is not that we’re lacking sufficiently powerful technologies. It’s instead that we’re already distracted by so many digital tools that there’s no time left to really open the throttle on our brains.
And this is a shame.
Few satisfactions are more uniquely human than the slow extraction of new understanding, illuminated through the steady attention of your mind’s eye.
So, grab a notebook and head somewhere scenic to work on a hard problem. Give yourself enough time, and the enthusiastic clamor about a world of AI agents and super-charged productivity will dissipate to a quiet hum."
Still not over Kendrick Lamar's concert being cancelled in Bogota this weekend 🥹
We came from Cali, queued all day to then find out on Twitter at 8pm that it was cancelled 💔
Still no proper answers. But don't buy tickets for concerts at Vive Claro 💀 #ViveClaroNoCumple
On Saturday, I MC'd for the very first time ever - hosting Creative Mornings Cali entirely in Spanish 🎤
Sometimes you just have to say yes to opportunities before you're ready 💫
It's been a long time since I've had full on 8-9 hour coding days and I am loving it 🤩
Feels so good to be deep in the problem and super focused 🧠
Current project: Migrating legacy Astro site over to Next.js Sanity ⚡️
I offered to volunteer at a new event for creatives in Cali and somehow walked away agreeing to MC their next one... in Spanish 😅🎤
I'm terrified but so excited. I feel like the best opportunities are the ones that scare you most.
Starting to read 5-10 pages of a technical book every day with my morning coffee
Today is day 1 🤓
ALT A picture of the first page of a book with the title "Chapter 1: Introduction to Design Patterns". The first line of the text says "Good code is like a love letter to the next developer who will maintain it"
My love gave his first tech talk on the weekend at a developer meet up
When we first went to this meet up a few years ago, he told me he wanted to give a talk there one day. And on Saturday, he finally did it 🥰
